The relief sought is against the de-
PENDANTS, not in their individual bnt in
their representative capacity. The acts
sought TO be restrained are the bringing
of suits 10y the State OF Virginia IN ITS
own name aud for its own use. If the
State had been made defendant 10 this
bin by name it would have been repre-
sented by the same officers who are now
here. The nature of this suppositlous
ease is identical with that Of the case as
actually presented in the bill with the
single exception that the State is not
named as defendant. How else can a
State be forbidden by judicial process
10 bring actions in its name except
by constraining the conduct OF It's OIL
GERS, attorneys, and agents? And II all
such officers are personally subjected TO
process OF court 50 as 10 forbid their act
ing in its behalf. bow can it be that a
State itself is not subjected TO the Juris,,
diction Of the court as is an actual and real
defendant? II is. however, Insisted
upon that it is within the jurisdiction OF
the Circuit Court 10 restrain by inlunc-
ton the officers of State from executing
provisions OF State statutes void by re-
pugnancy 10 the Constitution OF the
United States that there are many pre-
cedcnts in which that jurisdiction has
been exercised under sanction Of thus

A DRUNKEN MANS FATAL ATTEMPT TO ENTER HIS
LANDLADYs ROOM.
An exciting fight to protect the honor OF u woman
took Mace In Boonton, n. D., on Wednesday night,
resulting in the death OF John Kelly. who had the lett
side of his head torn away by the discharge OF a
double-barrelled gun. Kelly was about thirty years
old and worked as laborer in the Boon.on Paper
Mills For several weeks ne had been boarding at the
house of Philip Habel, German, about sixty years
old. Mrs. Habe is handsome and only thirty years
old Tie boarding house has long been resort OF
Hungarians and Austrians. Kelly was not member
nj their circle On Wednesday night he entered the
bouse almost wild with intoxcation About midnight
Mrs Ha5ell started upstairs with her child Kelly
ATTEMPTED to follow her, and was Indignantly re
pulsed He persisted, and the woman fed with the
child to her room and locked the door
Kelly by that time seemed absolutely insane, ana
tried TO burst open the door, Mrs Habel braced her
feet against the inside OF the door and shouted for
help. Kelly made a dash into the adjoining room,
occupied by Hungarian bOarders expecting 10 gam
entrante 10 Mrs. Habells room from there. Inc ln-
mates however, threw him into the hallway. The
noise of the fighting was heard down stairs by HaOe
and he ran up TO his wites room. She opened tue
door for him, and tho angry husband seized double
barreled shotgun from the bracket and hurried back
into the hallway
So far "a could be learned, Habell met Kelly end
a terrible fight took place in the dark. Kelly must
have been struck over the head with the butt OF the
gun because the stOck is stained with blood Every
body on the floor seems TO have been engaged IN the
frantic struggle, aud Kelly fought like madinan.
Suddenly the hun discharged, and Kelly toll dead
with the lett side of his head torn away His body
rolled down the stairway, and 1t is said that MIS-

CLEARING THE CRIMINAL CALENDAR.

District Attorney MARITIME wrote to Mayor Hewitt
Yesterday expressing pleasure that the Controller had
signed the lease the premises for the Receiver

Works to mako arrangements for fitting upa new
court room fol- Part III of the General Sessions and
giving additional accommodation TOR the prosecuting
officer of tho county He thanks the Mayor for the
interest he has taken In the branch OF the court
and tor his official aid In providing temporary accom-
mediation for it. Mr.. MARITIME says that the result
thus far is satisfactory During the two months that
the new branch has been In session 402 cases have
been disposed of average OF fifteen cases daily, and
In a single day fines amounting to al, 100 have been
collected In oeomargarine cases. Before the opening
of Part ILL., current prison aloae were sufficient
TO tax the resources OF Parts and III TO their utmost
capacity and it was found to be an impoasbility TO
try bail case except at rare intervals. Tho giving
of bail had come TO be looked upon as virtual
empton from trial During the last two months q
large number OF bail cases have been tried. This,
however is only the beginning OF determined effort
TO clear the Dstuct-Attorneys Office OF the mass OF
untried cases. With the passage OF the remedial
measures now before the Legislature, the District
Attorney believes that ample provision will be made
for disposing OF the accumulated untred indictments
aud Tor keeping up with the business OF the Office
